The Gospel According to Noah

Uniontown, PA Bible Conference

October 28-30,  2016

 

This conference was held October 28-30, 2016 in Western Pennsylvania. The Abundant Life Church and Gene Cunningham presented “The Gospel According to Noah. ” Hebrews 11:6-7 says “But without faith [it is] impossible to please [Him], for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and [that] He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.”

Galatians 7

Galatians 7

Spiritual life originates in the Holy Spirit (Gal 2:20), but operates in the sphere of liberty (Gal 5:1), and results in sacrificial service (Gal 6:1). The focus and motive in "you who are spiritual" is Christ (Gal 6:1-2). Spirituality is defined in Chapter 5 as being led by the Spirit (Gal 5:6, Gal 5:11-24). "Meekness" is power under control not weakness (Gal 6:1) — submission to the authority of Word of God and power of the Spirit and considering the glory of Jesus Christ. Make sure you don't have an attitude of condescension (Gal 6:3). "Law of Christ" (Gal 6:2) is the only law we're under — "faith working through love" (Gal 5:6), "law of liberty" (Jam 1:25, Jam 2:12), "royal law" (Jam 2:8), "the love of Christ compels us" (2Co 5:14). Love is burden bearing (Gal 6:2, Rom 15:1). God welds us together through ministry to one another (Rom 8:28). This a matter of realism (Gal 6:3) and personal responsibility.



Spiritual living is oriented toward the eternal harvest (Gal 6:6-10). At the judgment seat we stand alone; our actions then will be something in which we can rejoice (Gal 6:4). Spiritual living focuses on eternity. Paul felt the debt Jesus paid (Rom 1:14, Rom 8:12-13, Mat 16:24). Confession of sin without correction is self-deceiving (Gal 6:7-8). "In fellowship" is not a Biblical concept. "Having fellowship one with another" (1Jo 1:7) means joint participation —action, engagement, involvement striving toward a joint goal. Paul suggests we view every decision and action from eternity. Our eternal harvest is what we've sown (Gal 6:8-10). Our "cross" to bear is the sacrificial service to others as an ambassador and priest (Gal 6:10, Gal 5:6). We can fall into the trap of making a good appearance, yet rob our service of the power of the Spirit of God (Gal 6:12). Paul returns to his boast in the cross (Gal 1:4, Gal 6:14). "Walk" means to advance in step that is in the power of the Spirit and love of Christ (Gal 6:14-17).



As the disciples were eating the passover, memorializing 1500 years before, Jesus gave them the communion elements (Mat 26:26). Jesus gave His body and blood as a gift. He is the only mediator — the God-man.
